If there’s one thing South Africans love as much as their football, it’s a good party—and this past weekend brought both in spectacular fashion.
As Kaizer Chiefs broke their long-standing title drought, fans didn’t just cheer from the sidelines—they got rewarded in the most unexpected way: free booze, and lots of it.
One Johannesburg nightclub, D48, decided to turn the celebration up a notch by sticking to a promise they boldly made before the match even kicked off.
D48 Comes Through With a Bold Promise
Located in the buzzing Midrand nightlife scene, D48 made waves last week when it declared that if Kaizer Chiefs won the Nedbank Cup, every Amakhosi fan at the club would drink on the house—at least for the first half of the match.
And true to their word, once the final whistle blew and the scoreboard read 2–1 in favour of Kaizer Chiefs over their rivals Orlando Pirates, the staff at D48 sprang into action.
Waitresses could be seen passing out wads of cash to stunned and delighted supporters, covering bar tabs that likely ran deep after a tense first half.
The club even shared the moment online with a cheeky caption:
“Free bills loading… you thought we were joking.”
A Decade-Long Wait Ends With a Bang
Kaizer Chiefs fans had every reason to go big. The victory marked the team’s first major title in ten years, finally bringing an end to a frustrating trophy drought.
The match wasn’t just a win—it was redemption.
Beating fierce rivals Orlando Pirates only made the moment sweeter.
The atmosphere at D48 wasn’t just about the drinks—it was electric, emotional, and downright euphoric.
Party Vibes Spread Beyond Johannesburg
It wasn’t just Midrand that lit up. Across the country, the “Khosi Nation” let loose.
In Durban, where the match took place at the Moses Mabhida Stadium, streets were filled with celebrating fans dancing, singing, and flying their team’s colours.
Social media was flooded with clips of cheering supporters waving flags, wearing jerseys, and chanting proudly as they partied the night away.
The Kaizer Chiefs official accounts joined in the excitement, reposting videos and messages from fans far and wide.
